Grain Producers SA (GPSA) has launched a groundbreaking project to establish a quantified grain production baseline in South Australia.

The eight Australian Drought Resilience Adoption and Innovation Hubs have welcomed the Australian Government’s announcement of grant funded soil health projects through the Natural Heritage Trust’s $302.1 million Climate-Smart Agriculture Program.

Karen Hollamby comes to the SA Drought Hub with over 20 years’ working experience in economic and community development, particularly in primary industry sectors.

AgriFutures Australia is proud to champion diversity through our grants for women. In addition to our AgriFutures Rural Women’s Award, we have created the Rural Women’s Acceleration Grant, developed to foster the professional growth of rural women who are not quite ready to apply for the Award.

Nominations are now open for the 2024 Livestock SA On-Farm Biosecurity Farmer of the Year award.

We need rural leaders with the skills and knowledge to make informed decisions about the future of their enterprises and industries. We also know the unique challenges faced by rural women and how important grants for women are. That’s why we created the AgriFutures Rural Women’s Award – Australia’s leading award empowering and celebrating the inclusive and courageous leadership of women involved in Australia’s rural and emerging industries, businesses and communities, now and into the future.

The Corporate Plan sets out our strategic direction and performance goals, and how we intend to delivery against our purpose over the next four years.

If you’re a recent graduate and passionate about research and the broadacre cropping industry, we have the perfect way to kick-start your career.

Grain Producers SA (GPSA) will hold the South Australian Grain Industry Awards for the very first time in early 2025, to recognise and celebrate the multi-billion-dollar sector.

The grant is available to South Australian producers to assist with costs for equipment needed to conduct property to property (P2P) movements and meet NLIS reporting obligations for sheep and farmed goats.
